No this book is not about the color black. Its about a beautiful dark skin girl( in her school knowed as the darkest dark skin girl) being bullied about how black she is, and how she's ugly and stuff( they are obviously blind...not like blind blind, but like blind enough to not see her beauty) until this Hispanic boy came to the school and you know love was in the air. just read the book because I don't even have any more stuff to put here okay thank you.☺☺☺
